Yamaha 15 HP F15LMHA Outboard Motors

This listing covers a new Yamaha F15LMHA: a 362cc, two-cylinder four-stroke carbureted engine rated at 15 hp, steered by tiller, started by hand, and weighing 115 lbs, with full throttle reaching 5000 up through 6000 rpm. What to check before buying Put the 20-inch shaft figure up against the boat's actual transom height first, since nothing about trim can correct a wrong fit after delivery. Starting is manual rather than electric, so there is no battery or wiring to plan for, keeping the install simple on a small boat. What ships with the motor Expect the box to include a fuel line, a safety lanyard, an aluminum propeller, and the printed owner's manual alongside the engine itself. Who it suits A pull-start tiller outboard in this weight class is a common choice for aluminum fishing boats, inflatables, and tenders where the operator sits close to the motor and steers by hand. Mounting and removing it stays manageable for one person without extra equipment, and there is no charging system to wire in. Living with the carburetor A single carburetor keeps this engine mechanically simple, but it also means fuel left sitting for weeks can leave gum behind; running the tank low or adding a stabilizer before storage keeps the float bowl and jets clear for the next trip out. Common questions Electric or manual start? Manual pull-start. What induction system does it use? A single carburetor. What is the warranty? 3 years.
